with all of these Christmas in July challenges going around, I figured I would post something to keep with the times :) I have all of these dies for use with my cuttlebug and they just sit around waiting for some love....so I picked up my photo corner die by Quickutz (now Lifestyle Crafts). One of my absolute FAVORITE uses for this die is to use it for trees. I love the look and I love to find things to decorate my trees with. For this card I chose cardinals...2 cardinals in love...if you know me, then you know I am quite a sap when it comes to being in love :) HA HA HA!!! I just made a joke and didn't realize it until just now...I am talking about the tree I created and I used the word "sap"...I guess the pun is intended? Hee hee! It is past midnight and I am realizing that I am getting delirious ;) Better wrap this up so I can get some much needed sleep in order to have a shot at a good day at work. Here goes:
